ANSWER; B (Transpiration)
EXPLANATION;
• Transpiration is the process by which plants lose water to the atmosphere
through the stomata.
The factor that would least affect photosynthesis is Nitrates in the soil.
Photosynthesis is the process by which plant make their own food by utilizing energy from sunlight, water and carbon dioxide. The limiting factors that affect photosynthesis are the light intensity, carbon dioxide concentration, temperature and water. Without enough light, a plant cannot photosynthesize very quickly, even if there is plenty of water and carbon dioxide.
<span>The
answer is A. The reduction in variety reduces the number of alleles for
each gene in the gene pool. This reduces the variations in the phenotypes of the crops. A disadvantage of this phenomenon is that it
would be difficult for the crops to withstand
environmental changes and calamities because there is no wide variation on
which natural selection could act upon to
enable the crops to adapt to these changes.</span>
The answer is; D
The angle at which the sun rays strike the earth at the equator is more or less 90 degrees while you move towards the poles, it much less than this. This means that the unit of sunlight per surface area received at the equator is higher than that at the poles. This is why the equator is always warmer than the poles.
<span>In a situation where more animals are born than the environment can support , the most likely thing that will happen is that will happen over a period of years is that individuals that are well suited to the environment will reproduce while the those that have lesser adaptations will die before they reproduce. This is called the survival of the fittest. The correct option is C.</span><span />
